iPhone 4S sluggish lately

Anyone else's 4S acting slow and sluggish lately? I usually notice it when I get a message and slide to open it. Takes a good few seconds for it to open and couple more to actually show the text. Sometimes I can't even answer calls because the touch screen becomes unresponsive.

Also, just got an apple TV and mirroring is really sluggish, for example jet pack joyride must run at like half speed.

Not sure why, but my friends say similar things. Anyone else?

Have you tried clearing all apps from the multitasking tray? Restarting?

yea its been happening for some time now, just finally starting to get fed up with it. ive tried basic restarting, etc. I want to do a restore, but I'm worried about losing some stuff like all the music i've created in garageband..but that should be backed up to icloud right?

Open Weather, Stocks, or iTunes on your iPhone. Once you open one of them, hold down the power button until you see the "Slide to power off" screen. Now, hold down the home button until you are brought back to your home screen.
